Chapter 8

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The light dissipated, and a lump of creature with most of the characteristics of the slime appeared in front of Rene. It was not much different from the original slime.

The only difference was that its body was transparent.

Moreover, there were fire runes engraved on it.

It did not look that great.

This slime did not glow, so it did not have the function of a light bulb.

Rene frowned after noticing that.

At the same time, he opened the interface.

In the end…

His eyes widened in surprise!

[Unit]: Fire Rune Slime (Rank 1 Soldier)

[Race]: Slime

[Grade]: Ordinary

[Level]: 1

[Health]: 20

[Damage]: 2-4

[Hire Cost]: 1 silver coin per week

[Racial Talent]: Healing

[Skill]: Fire Element Condensation

[Description]: A slime that has accidentally fused with a fire rune, it can condense fire elements and bring light to the surroundings.

————

It could be seen that this Fire Rune Slime could glow!

The prerequisite was that it had to condense enough fire elements.

This was very similar to the effects of fire runes.

“It feels a little like solar-powered light.”

“However, how will it absorb this fire element?”

Rene stared at the Fire Rune Slime for a moment, then glanced at the blazing bonfire.

The next second, he picked up the little creature and threw it near the bonfire.

The result was unexpected. The Fire Rune Slime ran extremely quickly, not willing to stay by the scorching bonfire.

Clearly, the fire element was not produced from the flames.

As if to avoid being harmed by Rene again, the Fire Rune Slime hid not far away and began to absorb the fire elements floating in the air.

This was much better than solar power. At the very least, it could work 24/7.

“How much should I sell it for?”

He started calculating.

If the price was too high, they could not afford it.

But if the price was too low, Rene would not sell it.

Wait.

Could he sell body parts?

Since the Mud Monster’s body would turn into fertile soil after leaving the body, could the Fire Rune Slime do the same?

If it was a segmented part, it would be much easier to sell.

It could be sold continuously as well.

At least until the end of this week, such goods would have great value.

With that in mind, his gaze grew more fervent.

He looked at the Flame Slime.

This little guy did not need to absorb the fire elements to glow and heat up. If he cut off a piece of mucus, it would definitely be effective.

“Come here, little one.”

“You’re a slime anyway. You’re not afraid of pain.”

Rene summoned a woodcutter and let him slash at the Flame Slime.

Slash!

The axe slashed down, splitting the Flame Slime into two.

The cut sliced away about a quarter of its body.

Interestingly, this jelly-like thing remained in its original state.

Moreover, the light was not small. It could light up an area of ten meters.

Rene quickly tested it with his appraisal and grinned.

“It can actually last for 12 hours!”

Like the glow sticks, its light could last for a period of time. After 12 hours, the fire elements inside would completely dissipate. At that time, it would become a pool of useless mucus.

“I wonder how effective the parts of the Fire Rune Slime will be after it is charged fully.”

Rene glanced at the Fire Rune Slime.

Five minutes had passed since it had begun absorbing.

But little had changed.

Only the center part glowed, very faintly.

According to this efficiency, it would take at least a few hours to complete the absorption.

Rather than disturb it, Rene looked at the glowing slime mucus on the ground.

He commanded the woodcutter to split it equally with the axe.

The mucus immediately shrank by half. At the same time, the area of illumination also decreased.

Now, it could only light up an area of about five square meters.

But for most Overlords, that was enough.

He turned on the system, then put the two globs of glowing slime on the trading platform.

————

[Seller]: Rene (0401)

[Trading Good]: Unknown Glowing Mucus x1.

[Requirement]: 1 Wooden Axe / 1 Pickaxe / 1 Forging Hammer.

[Storage]: 2

[Note]: If you have a special item, you can send a private message to discuss the transaction.

————

The two balls of mucus successfully got listed.

A glowing slime that lasted for 12 hours could illuminate the entire night.

This time, Rene did not ask for fire runes. Instead, he requested tools such as wooden axes.

Although this was a bit like a black-hearted businessman, to some players with extra tools, this kind of exchange was simply godsend.

After the two items were hung on the platform, it immediately attracted the attention of countless people.

“Friends with extra tools, quickly go to the trading platform. Someone is selling a glowing object!”

“A glowing object?”

“Damn! I just saw it. It’s a glow item that can last for 12 hours. If you get it, the entire night will be yours!”

“Good stuff. Unfortunately, I only have one wooden axe.”

“What’s up with this Rene guy? I think he traded a laborer away earlier, and now he’s bringing out such a magical tool.”

“Everyone has transmigrated to this world. What else is impossible?”

“He probably encountered a special cave. After using the fire runes to enter, he obtained a large pile of materials.”

“Isn’t his luck too good? Why is there nothing around me?”

“I found a pickaxe in the tree hole. I’m going to exchange it now.”

…

Many people began to discuss this matter.

Due to the arrival of the night, many people could not work. They could only hide in the Overlord’s Hall and chat.

The item that Rene was selling was very special and attracted a lot of attention.

However, the matter was still too small, and the relevant topic was quickly drowned by other comments.

At this moment, Jessica, who had previously made a deal, sent a private message.

“Mr. Rene, I didn’t manage to buy the glowing material just now. Can you sell me one in private?”

Rene, who had just finished trading, saw the message.

In fact, she was not the only one who wanted to purchase it. More than a hundred people had sent private messages asking to purchase this material.

But for the moment, Rene turned her down.

Although the Flame Slime could recover the damaged parts, it would take time. He had to study it first and wait until he confirmed the production capacity before selling it.

Rene explained the difficulty of obtaining the items, followed by his polite rejection.

But she said, “It doesn’t matter. I can pay you first. Send me the goods as soon as you have them. What do you say, Mr. Rene?”

Payment first?

There was such a good thing?

Rene agreed at once, “Sure.”

“Thank you, Mr. Rene.”

Jessica thanked him, then asked, “I have a wooden axe and a forging hammer. Which do you want?”

“Forging hammer.”

After saying that, he received an email.

He opened it directly.

Ding!

[Congratulations on obtaining: Ordinary Forging Hammer.]
